Anthropogenic activities are altering total nutrient loads to many estuaries and freshwaters,
resulting in high loads not only of total nitrogen (N), but in some cases, of chemically …

Nitrate assimilation is a key process for nitrogen (N) acquisition in green microalgae. Among
Chlorophyte algae, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has resulted to be a good model system to …

Microalgae comprise a biodiverse group of photosynthetic organisms that reside in water
sources and sediments. The green microalgae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii was adopted as …

Since the first edition of Nitrogen in the Environment published in 1983, it has been
recognized as the standard in the field. In the time since the book first appeared, there has …

Local and global changes associated with anthropogenic activities are impacting marine
and terrestrial ecosystems. Macroalgae, especially habitat-forming species like kelp, play …

The nitrogen compounds nitrate and ammonium are the minerals that plants need in large
quantities and which limit their growth in temperate zones. The nitrate assimilation pathway …

Recent studies have highlighted the impact of sea surface iodide concentrations on the
deposition of ozone to the sea surface and the sea to air flux of reactive iodine. The use of …

The production of microalgae biomass shows wide valuable uses, in the aquaculture,
biotechnology, and food science, among others. However, microalgae show fluctuations in …

The large-scale green tides, consisting mainly of Ulva prolifera, have invaded the coastal
zones of western Yellow Sea each year since 2008, resulting in tremendous impacts on the …

Nitrogen and sulfur are abundant constituents of plant and algal cells that are assimilated at
the lowest oxidation number, as NH 4+ and S 2−, although they can (in the case of sulfur …
